>Nomenclator Zoologicus is a continuous record of the bibliographical
>origins of the names of every genus and subgenus in zoology published
>since the 10th ed. of Linnaeus' Systema Naturae in 1758 up to 1994 in
>nine volumes. (Now 2004 and 10 volumes). Names are listed
>alphabetically, with a bibliographic reference to the original
>description of each one and an indication of the animal group to
>which it belongs.
>
>We would like to extend thanks to those who have helped to review the
>conversion of the original nine volumes. Over 20,000 records (or
>864,000 characters) have been reviewed. Of these, 264 corrections
>have been required of which only 33 represent actual typographical
>errors. The remainder are parsing errors where content intended for
>one column was in another. We have calculated the typographical
>accuracy currently as 99.997%. We continue to seek volunteer reviewers.

>We would like to acknowledge the efforts of Nigel Robinson and the
>Thompson Publishing Group for their collaboration with the ZSL.
